Day 165: Field trip to McDonald Observatory!

More pictures coming soon from this amazing field trip! This is a picture of one of the largest telescopes of its kind on Earth, which is housed at the McDonald Observatory in west Texas.

Students and teachers spend two nights camping out in Fort Davis and spent the days exploring and the nights gazing at the stars. Our students even got special tours of the telescopes, including the giant 108" one, by the actual astronomers on base.
